His efforts include helping secure over $3 million in federal funding for the new West Texas A&M University Feedlot Educational Training Facility\u2019s research feedlot and educational complex. The project will provide students with hands-on education and training while advancing research and innovation in the fed cattle industry.\n\n\u201cAgriculture is the backbone of the Texas Panhandle, and the farmers, ranchers, producers, and agricultural professionals who feed and fuel our nation deserve a strong voice in Washington,\u201d said Rep. Jackson. \u201cThe work being done at WT is essential for preparing the next generation of agricultural leaders and strengthening an industry that is so vital to the Texas Panhandle and our entire nation. I am honored to have been selected to receive the First Choice Award and will continue to be a strong advocate for agriculture in Congress.\u201d\n\n###", 1, "2026-09-16T09:43:13Z", "2026-09-16T09:44:22Z"]], "columns": ["url", "title", "date", "year", "month", "party", "chamber", "state", "member_name", "bioguide_id", "domain", "scraper", "source", "date_source", "text", "has_text", "collected_at", "updated_at"], "primary_keys": ["url"], "primary_key_values": ["https://jackson.house.gov/news/documentsingle.aspx?DocumentID=2608"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 2.3775678128004074, "source": "dwillis/congress-press", "source_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press", "license": "MIT", "license_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press/blob/main/LICENSE"}
